2-Day Kayak Tour - Abel Tasman

I was wondering why Maddie was in such a hurry early in the morning as we were about to leave our campsite for the kayak rental—only a minute away. Turns out, we didn’t have to be there at 8:45 a.m. as I had assumed, but at 8:15 a.m.

Well. That ain’t good.

We were informed that we’d be on the later tour at 10:15 a.m. because we had missed too much of the instructions. But miraculously, since we’re both model students (please don’t interview any of my former teachers, thank you), we were allowed to join our originally planned tour.

The instructor read us the weather forecast for the next two days and commented, “I’d love to rip this up and throw it away, but legally, I have to read this to you.”

What he read to us sounded great, though—perfect conditions for a two-day kayak trip. Sunshine, calm water, hardly any wind.

We got into our double kayak and paddled away.Weiterlesen
